Chapter 19

"Bai Yuan is my good friend."

Seeing Baimei's expression of meeting a big joke, Baifeng tried hard to defend seriously.

"Hahaha, you're talking about that lame-headed Bai Yuan?"

Baimei patted her thigh "papa", laughing so hard that tears almost came out.

Although he knew that Bai Feng was talking about that Bai Yuan, he still teased him.

In fact, Baimei is also a quirky child, but, a while ago, she was a little depressed and out of mood by Bai Gui's family, but now, after she slowly figured it out, she gradually became cheerful again.

"Well, of course, who else?"

Bai Feng pulled his neck and nodded.

There are two people in their village who pronounce Baiyuan. One is Baiyuan who lives on the mountain. He is in the same class as Baimei. His grades are good and he has never been in the top ten of his class. In his eyes, they are all good seedlings.

Although she is quite popular with the teacher, but in the eyes of her mother Huo Xiulian, she has no status because Bai Yuan was picked.

Speaking of Bai Yuan, her family is well-known.

At that time, Bai Yuan's father, Bai Xinyou, really wanted to go to college, but he repeated it many times. Most of the better high schools in the county went to more than half of them. .

His father, Bai Zhongkui, is an official in the supply and marketing cooperative, and a non-agricultural employee.

In those days, those who were officials in the supply and marketing cooperatives were all very remarkable figures in people's eyes.

Non-agricultural hukou, in that Shantai at that time, was a luxury that no one could even dream of.

Although Bai Zhongkui is an official in the supply and marketing cooperative, only Bai Zhongkui in his family has a non-agricultural hukou, while Bai Xinyou, his siblings and his mother, Ma Yifang, all have rural hukou.

Ma Yifang's father, that is, Bai Xinyou's grandfather, is called Malihan. It is said that he is from an ethnic minority, not a native of them. He took Ma Yifang's mother, Qi Feifei, to settle in Baizhou in the winter of a certain year. home ditch.

Malihan and Qi Feifei seldom deal with people nearby, especially Qi Feifei, who stays indoors most of the time and rarely goes out. Few people have seen her, but those who have seen her say that she has delicate skin and tender flesh , speaks softly, is very polite to people, walks differently from others, dances like a butterfly, like a fairy.

Before Ma Yifang was born, Malihan was kidnapped by a group of bandits and jumped to death. When he died, Ma Yifang was in her mother Qi Feifei's stomach.Malihan is a gentleman who knows a little about yin and yang and gossip. Before he died, he confessed that no matter whether the child in his womb is a son or a girl, his name is Ma Yifang.Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. He has committed a lot of crimes, which may be retribution on his grandson. Only by doing a lot of good deeds, Ma Yifang's children will be full of blessings.

With infinite guilt, Malihan looked at Qi Feifei who was crying like pillars, exhausted his last bit of strength, touched her stomach, and closed his eyes in the bean-like oil lamp.

Later, one night after giving birth to Ma Yifang, Qi Feifei also disappeared.

Ma Yifang was finally brought up by a lonely old man with a withdrawn personality in Baijiagou.

After Bai Zhongkui took a fancy to Ma Yifang's outstanding face, he married Bai Zhongkui.

Ma Yifang inherited Qi Feifei's appearance, but did not inherit her character. When doing things, he is always a little ruthless, and he is self-centered in everything. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is selfish.This may have something to do with her having no parents since she was a child.

Ma Yifang doesn't seem to care much about anyone. Marrying Bai Zhongkui seems to be just a ritual in life. He doesn't have any special maternal love for Bai Xinyou and his brothers and sisters.

As long as you live step by step according to the secular routine, you just need to integrate into the village and everyone.

He has no enthusiasm for the people around him, as long as he can save face and not provoke gossip.

How can a person who has never felt maternal love know how to give others maternal love?

Bai Xinyou has three brothers and two younger sisters. He is the eldest, and Bai Zhongkui can't stay at home for a few days all year round. Therefore, he usually helps Ma Yifang to take care of his younger siblings. have done.

As long as they live in the countryside, farmers should do what they should do and suffer, and nothing will be left behind, but, compared with other families, it is slightly lighter.

Bai Xinyou is the boss and sensible, and he likes Bai Zhongkui very much. Bai Zhongkui sees the opportunity and will take him to the supply and marketing cooperative where he works for two days during the slack season.

Every time I go to Baizhong Kuina, Bai Xinyou will feast on my mouth, such as candy, biscuits, etc., I will eat it with all my strength.

Their home is one of the rare ten-thousand-dollar households in ten miles and eight towns. The house is connected to electricity, has a radio, a TV, a panda brand watch, a cashmere blanket, can eat dumplings, and a whole New Year pig for the New Year.
When the TV series Huo Yuanjia became popular all over the country, their family gathered the entire production team.

At first, people from a few families who were close to each other crowded to their house to watch, and later, people from the whole village gathered around.

Seeing that there were more and more people in the house, Bai Zhongkui asked Bai Xinyou to move out the small TV and put it at the entrance of the main hall, and then put rows of benches on the dam, which was very convenient for the big guys.

During that time, not only that time, but also for a long, long time, when the time came, there was always a group of people sitting on the dam in front of their house, watching the TV on the small TV. All kinds of TV dramas, the scene is more lively than the production team's members' meeting.

After the TV broadcast, people held torches and dispersed to their homes. The scene of a large number of torches evacuating was spectacular.

Their family, to other people, is like a god-like existence, and they all hope to have something to do with their family.

Coincidentally, one summer, after harvesting the rice, men rushed to the river at the entrance of the village to take a bath.

Bai Wu and Bai Xinyou were also among them. When Bai Xinyou was showing off his skills, his leg cramped, and no one else noticed. After the sharp-eyed Bai Wu found out, he rescued Bai Xinyou. Bai Wu, the savior, was made his guest of honor.

Every time the family makes dumplings and stewed pig's trotters, Bai Xinyou always rushes to Bai Wu's house and asks Bai Wu to eat together.The two often called each other in-laws, planning to beat their children in-laws when they planned to give birth to a child in the future.

However, after Bai Xinyou and Huo Xiulian got married, Huo Xiulian's stomach didn't move for a long time.

Seeing that Bai Wu and Qin Yulan, who were married at about the same time, had two children, Bai Xinyou didn't say anything, but secretly, his feet almost smashed the ground.

In the village and in the team, all kinds of rumors also quietly sprang up.

The women there have no other hobbies, they just like to scrape together a piece of plastic mouth if they have something to do. After chewing the east and the west, it seems that there is nothing to chew. It seems that something is missing, and there is no taste.

Which family's daughter-in-law has sores on her head, which family has a grandson again, which family's daughter is divorced, and which family's daughter-in-law and mother-in-law are fighting again, all these cannot escape the mouths and spittle of the women.

During the slack season, chew these to pass the time, and when the farming is busy, you need to chew these to relieve the tired body and mind.

Bai Xinyou and Huo Xiulian have been married for several years and haven't given birth to a child. Those women have long since chewed on such a big baby.

In the end, when it reached Ma Yifang's ears, the version was like this: Bai Xinyou and Huo Xiulian couldn't have children because Ma Lihan and Qi Feifei did a lot of evil things, Ma Yifang didn't do good deeds, and the retribution has arrived On the head of their grandson Bai Xinyou, Bai Xinyou is about to die.

Ma Yifang was originally a dull person, and he never interfered with those women's affairs.

What she was thinking was, I won't blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah to you to stop me blah blah blah. Let's take a detour so we don't interfere with each other.

Have a quiet day.

However, the rumors still slandered her for no reason, and incidentally brought her parents along.

Ma Yifang lost his temper.
